Emotions
It has been denied that feelings are the content of music

Pitch, quality, and dynamic intensity
Quality
It has been denied that feelings are the content of music
Or that it is the mission of music to give expression to feelings
But the scientific fact remains
That the fundamental elements of vocal music
Are the results of feelings working upon the vocal organs
Pitch, quality, and dynamic intensity
It is too late now to deny
That music is conceived by its creators
As a language of the emotions
And so applied by them
It is too late now to deny
That music is conceived by its creators
As a language of the emotions
